From The Washington Post:
Two new books that penetrate the secrecy surrounding China’s senior leaders are generating whispers and chatter across the country, but in a twist that offers insight into the Communist Party’s efforts to shape public opinion, propaganda officials have banned only one of them and are aggressively promoting the other.
The contrast is particularly striking because the banned work was written by one of the party’s own, a veteran journalist employed for 35 years by the official New China News Agency, while the author of the favored book, a biography of former President Jiang Zemin, is an American investment banker.
